GREG DOBBS! Tie game!

Yep, you missed it last night ;) And its 20x better than the braves girl.

no I don't know her.
She's been replaced by a bat! Mind sending me a PM?
 
I'm torn on this game. The Marlins are the team in front of us, but I hate the Braves. Whoever wins, I lose.

the thing I find most funny about the Reds firing their GM is I swear he was in the booth during one of the games on FSN Ohio like a week ago. he must've known he was getting canned because he kept talking about what a great job he'd done.

According to an interview he gave today afterwards, he said he had no idea.
 
The braves sac bunt to move up a runner when you're down by 3 in the 8th? Brilliant!
why didn't they try that in the 6 previous innings when it was only a one run difference...
 
A win in Fenway and a save from K-Fraud?

Ryan Church has been an awesome pickup for us, especially considering he was pretty much a throw-in with Schneider for Milledge.

Shields actually not sucking in Fenway too... And 3 HRs to boot. Woo.
Let's hope it keeps up.

P.S. Saw you got modded at HH. Congrats would be in order if the place wasn't almost universally maligned. :lol

Yup yup... though I'm pretty much just the numbers junkie. Collect, record, reveal. Aside from that I'm just up there for kicks :P And I got MLB 08 for free to do a review on... that was nice. Heh.
 
Yes, Dodgers draw first blood.

I can't for the life of me comprehend this lineup though. Andruw Jones hitting second? Nomar hitting cleanup? Loney and Kemp (3rd and 4th best hitters on the team right now) hitting 6th and 7th?

Torre must be trying to shake some people out of their slumps. I hope it works.

What do you think of the new SBN sites? I think they are too cluttered and slow. :( I miss the old ones. I know they will keep tweaking the performance and get them up to speed .. but right now, they can be painful to browse.

The new SBN is AWFUL.

So, so slow.

Yeah. When there are a boat load of comments and you want to look at it later, it's an absolute nightmare to load up... but I love the auto-refreshing comments and the 'press z to read and scroll' along thing.
 
man, I hate the Reds. Seems like the only time they have any shot at winning a game is if it's Harang, Cueto or Volquez pitching. If this team makes the playoffs they at least have some deadly starters for a short series, but the only one of those guys who's really proven is Harang.

not like the Reds will make the playoffs anyway, looks like the Cubs will run away with the Central and one of the big money NL East teams will win the WC.
 
Astros are starting to get it together. Lee and Pence are coming out of their slumps, Tejada is on fire. If Valverde straightens himself out and the injuries heal up, they're going to be quite a force. It would be nice if they could pick up a starter to be #2 behind Roy, though.


Also, the 'weak' NL Central is actually beginning to look rather formidable.
 
Shit, Chan Blow Park is doing great so far. :lol

Man do I hate this shit, It was so much easier to watch these games last year when the bullpen was solid. Everyone is so shaky out of the pen so far this year.
